Today a lady came into the restaurant who I had been led to believe was deaf. Her and her friend always come in to get to-go orders and I had never heard her say anything before. Today she was by herself. I started asking her what her order was and what kind of toppings she wanted on her pizza with hand gestures and by pointing at the menu. I then noticed that she was also reading my lips. I felt weird talking out loud to a person who was reading my lips, so for some reason I just started mouthing the words I was saying. After about a minute of this the lady pulls out a piece of paper, scribbles something quickly on it with a pen, and slides it to me across the counter top. I look down to read it and my jaw drops. “I CAN HEAR”. I am an asshole.
